The all-Hungarian team plays Bartok with an elegant, stately, flair. Schiff's tone is superb, and the sound of the orchestra is full and reverberant. Schiff makes the difficult Bartok sound easy, but he has said of the popular Second Concerto: "or the piano player, it's a finger-breaking piece. BARTOK AND HIS PIANO CONCERTOS Bela Bartok was a great modernist, and very influential, but less so than his peers Stravinsky or Schoenberg because, as Milton Babbitt once complained, his innovations tended to be particular to each composition rather than a system like Schoenberg's 12-tone music. Bartok famously drew on Hungarian folk music, and his use of modal scales gives his music a uniquely odd quality in contrast to standard tonality, but he emphatically maintained that his music was tonal.

If Hungarian pianist András Schiff is a real national pride in the field of classical music, it is notably because in 1966 he received, from the President of the Republic, the most prestigious Hungarian cultural award, the Kossuth Prize. A passionate about Bach’s music, throughout his distinguished career he has played and recorded on the piano Bach’s entire work for harpsichord. Furthermore, in 2007 he received the Royal Academy of Music's Bach Prize.
